I know some of you have been asking me about my new design. My lovely design is courtesy of Ms Danielle Designs. For the month of May, She will make you a custom Blogger design for the wonderful price, of a $10 install fee. It is an AWESOME deal! My design was ready in under a week.

I love when I get to review items from my home state of Illinois! Today, I get to do a review, and a giveaway for 2 bottles of Country Bob's sauce. I love to use Country Bob's sauce as my dip for french fries, chicken, and steak! YUMMY! Country Bob's is based, in Centralia, Illinois.

Here is a little snippet from the website:

It was 1968 when Country Bob Edson perfected his sauce recipe and today we call it All Purpose Sauce because it was more than just a steak sauce. Country Bob’s All Purpose Sauce has remained the flagship item since 1982 when Country Bob, Inc. was established.

Country Bob's also has a whole lot more then just the regular flavored All purpose sauce. There is

I love for my home, to smell good. I always have a candle lit, or tarts melting in my tart warmer. I recently was privileged to try Scentsy. I am in LOVE. The scent lasts forever. I had 2 little chunks from the bar melting, and it lasted for four days! This is the perfect home business to get into. I have thought about it a lot!

I got to try the very cute Tiki Full-Size Scentsy Warmer. It is so cute! The eyes look like they light up. It's really neat when you sit in the Dark with it on. What I like most about it, is there is no flame. It heats up the wax with a 25 watt light bulb. Here is the description on the site. Bring a slice of island living home with Tiki, a fun and funky interpretation of ancient stone carvings.

I also got to try the Luna Scentsy bar. This is PURE Floral heaven! My house smells wonderful! I am now a scentsy addict! LOL. Here is the description from the website.

She joined Scentsy in Nov.2009, without any intention of making it a business. She has always loved scented candles,however, she couldn't use them as much as she wanted to because of her young kids, and she also worried that she may forget to blow out a candle. When she found Scentsy, she thought,"what a great idea!". A safe alternative to burning candles.

Building her Scentsy business started in April, 2010. Today, Theo is an Independent Sales Director. Her team is constantly growing and spreads across U.S, Canada and most recently the U.K.

She believes the secret to her success is that she has the best team and the most awesome customers.

I was looking through my facebook feed, and I came upon someone that shared a link. The link was for Coups for Troops. They collect expired coupons, (up to 6 months expired) for military families to use.

I think this is a GREAT idea. I didnt know what to do, with all the expired freebie coupons I had. I simply had so many, that I forgot I had them. So, I am glad they are going to go to good use. :)

I have two $25 cooking.com E-gift certificates to giveaway to one lucky reader. I am not much of a cook, so I dont cook much lol. So I figured I would give these to someone who would use these. These are stackable, so you can use them both at the same time. I will email them to the winner at the end of the contest.

Since Blogger was down, I decided to switch to wordpress. Well I HATED wordpress! Now I am in the process of switching my domain www.nightowlsperch.com back here to blogger. GoDaddy said it could take a day. You can still enter the contests from the www.nightowlsperch.blogspot.com pages.

I am sorry for all the problems this has caused. I know blogger has been kind of unreliable the past few days, but it looks like I am sticking with Blogger. Wordpress is too complicated for this girl. lol.
